That is the very definition of "unsupported assumptions" so you might want to really think about your comments before contradicting yourself. But really, that fact that you feel the need to pass judgment says a lot about the insecure place you're coming from. I don't need to justify my book or expertise, but thanks anyway...

By "progressive spiritual orientation", I intended to communicate that my beliefs go beyond mainstream religion, which can be quite conservative. There is no good/bad, true/false implied, though there are many religious beliefs I personally consider to be false. No dogma here for that matter---all projections on your part.
I must've touched a sore spot ... So you're insulting me. This is typical of many self-entitled "progressive" or "spiritual".

You're selling something (wrote a book to publish), so the burden to convince is on your side. You need to justify your expertise if you want to communicate, and to sell your product.

You can be an atheist, have new age or whatever flavor of spiritual beliefs and still be dogmatic. Considering your self above / beyond / ... could be a telling sign.

I guess when you asked for help, you wanted help only the way you expect it, no critical suggestions.

Can you point to something you've already published?

To act one needs to have an opinion, and to form an opinion one has to pass judgement. People cry "judgmental" only when they don't like the judgement.
